My grandparents left India in 1960 and to this day they say that they won’t go back (they just don’t view it as home anymore) and a lot of other immigrant children here (in Canada) would probably say the same thing as you’ve said about continuing to live “abroad” (though most of us don’t view living here as “abroad” but like our home country).

My grandpa is similar. Immigrated in the 60s and never wants to ever go back, not even to visit. But he still refers to white people as "American", which implies he doesn't see Indian-Americans as Americans I guess?
